Solve the problem below. For your initial post in Brightspace, copy the description of your rectangle given in the box below and then enter your solution to all four parts (parts a, b, c, and d) of the problem. To copy the description of your rectangle, highlighting and using "copy" from here in Mobius and then using "paste" into Brightspace should work.

Hint: This question is similar to Example 4 in "1-3 Reading and Participation Activities: Models and Applications" in Module One. You can check your answers to part c and d to make sure that you are on the right track.

A rectangle has perimeter116

cm and its length is1

cm more than twice its width.

Find the dimensions of a rectangle given that its perimeter is116

cm and its length is1

cm more than twice its width.

Set up your solution using the variablesL

for the length,W

for the width, andP

for the perimeter.

Solve the equations from parts a and b.

Part c: The length iscm.

Part d: The width iscm.
